Will those wheels fit? START HERE.
#4594
I found some BBS LM REPS here are the specs;
19 x 8.5 +35 FRONT
19 X 9.5 +35 REARS
5 X 114.3
I have 06 is350 do I need 3mm spacers upfront? Also I am not lowered and do not plan on being lowered, will these wheels work no issues? The tires are at 90% tread, missing the center caps, but for $800 they are a steal right?
Thank you for your help sorry for the newbie questions....

I've searched through this thread a lot and haven't seen much mention of people running 285/30/19 tires. I'm not much for the stretched tire/stance look.
My question is with a minimal spring drop (H&R or Tein) will I have any major rubbing running a 285/30/19 tire on a 40 offset on the rear of an 06 IS350? If not what is the max offset I can get away with running a wider tire?

my wheel specs aren't really aggressive 9x19 offset 37 225/35 19 and still this happened when i hit a pothole:
this just sucks.. i thought with those specs i was safe.. how the **** could this happen.. the car is lowered to a "no gap" between tires and fender.
what can i do to avoid this, besides not driving through potholes? :F

This will work with rolled fenders, pulled rears, relocated bumper tabs and you might need a camber kit. Tire sizing is perfect.

Obviously, the answer is to raise the car up OR roll the fender out. You can't get away with "no gap" with the wheel spec that you have, even you consider it not aggressive but it is approx 1 inch poke out compared to factory wheel. This combined with "zero gap" shall result in bent fender for sure. I have 19x8.5 +35 with 235/35/19 running 1.5 finger gap up front and I have no problem at all. I guess 1 finger gap is about a border line of hit or no-hit on fender.
i thought i am pretty safe, because here at CL are many car owners who lowered their cars much more then mine and have wider/pokier wheels.. so all those drivers have the risk to bend their fenders..?
another question, is it possible that better coilovers (i am on D2 coils) will avoid the tire meets fender situation?

Other options you might look into:
1. Running stiffer spring. You don't need new coilover. Just change to stiffer spring (Higher spring's "K" constant). Those who have aggressive wheels and slamed ride height (tires tucked) run 12K or 14K on the front coilover.
2. Get the front camber arm kit. With more negative camber, you can reduce the risk of bending your fender. This is because the top of your wheel will slant into the wheel well, providing more clearance between tire and fender
3. Running smaller thinner tire. Such as 215/35/19
